Ken's Story

**Meet Ken!**<br/><br/>Ken is a 12-year-old Standard Poodle who is equal parts sweet, silly, handsome, and just a little bit Muppet.<br/><br/>This friendly guy loves people, does well with other dogs, and would make a wonderful companion for someone looking for an easygoing best friend. Ken is maybe a little bit too interested in cats, so home without feline friends might be a great idea.Ken is housebroken, crate trained, eats well, and has recently had a full medical workup, dental care, and a fresh groom. He’s looking good and officially ready to mingle!<br/><br/>One of Ken’s absolute favorite things is simply being outside. Give him a nice yard and a comfortable spot in the grass, and he’ll happily spend hours lounging, watching the world go by. He still enjoys running around and playing in the yard too.<br/><br/>Ken does have some anxiety, particularly with thunderstorms, loud noises, and a lot of commotion. He gets supplements to help keep his anxiety manageable, but he would be happiest in a quieter, low-key home. A busy household with lots of noise or young children would likely be overwhelming for him.<br/><br/>We are also keeping an eye on some occasional weakness in his feet that could be an early sign of degenerative myelopathy. Sometimes his feet are a little unsteady or he will knuckle, but he is not in pain, and it currently doesn’t stop him from running, playing, exploring the yard, or enjoying his life.<br/><br/>At 12 years old, Ken isn’t asking for much. He’d just like a peaceful home, plenty of time outside, someone to love, and a comfortable place to enjoy his golden years. In return, you’ll get a sweet, friendly, wonderfully derpy companion who is impossible not to love.<br/><br/>If your idea of a perfect day involves a quiet home, a little fresh air, and a handsome poodle Muppet by your side, Ken might just be your guy.<br/><br/>Albert's Dog Lounge is a specialty rescue focusing primarily on senior and special needs dogs.<br/><br/>Our process includes an approved application, reference checks, a homevisit, and then a meet and greet with the dog. Adoption fee is $350, ($600 for a pair).
